Dear SUV drivers,
You know, you may be invincible in your four-wheel drive vehicles, but you do still have to brake like the rest of us.

Love,

Me

ha ha She's a party animal!

Last night, I grocery shopped 'til I dropped. I got home, had some lovely soy tacos a la Nick, then fell asleep in front of White Christmas. When I woke up, they were singing the theme song in a big production number. Then it was THE END.

Dear Administrative Assistant at Mega Law Firm,

You suck at your job. You are obviously stoned, and my name is not Jeffie. Who the hell is name JEFFIE?

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:20 (sixteen years ago) link

Jeff?

Jordan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:21 (sixteen years ago) link

Maybe he has a speech impediment?

dan m, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:21 (sixteen years ago) link

Maybe he just has really big jowls.

dan m, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:25 (sixteen years ago) link

You are obviously stoned, and my name is not Jeffie.

Guess what ... IT IS NOW, JEFFIE

Dear US District Courts

Why are most of your documents available *ONLY* in Word Perfect format? Eh?

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:27 (sixteen years ago) link

you guys yesterday i was caught up in a case of mistaken identity, debt collection and on-the-phone legal drama that i only bring up to tell you this:
if you are listed anywhere in the phone book, even without your full name, this may happen to you.

also: i got a jury duty notice! it's for early january.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:30 (sixteen years ago) link

Are you happy about that? You seem excited.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:32 (sixteen years ago) link

My bossgal says: lawyers do not select juries, juries select themselves.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:33 (sixteen years ago) link

xp - not really, but at least it comes between semesters. i hope i don't have to actually be on a jury.

i am definitely not excited about being mistaken for a debtor with my same name (diff. middle initial) and harassed for months about it.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:34 (sixteen years ago) link

debtor
sorry that sounds way more extreme than it really is.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:35 (sixteen years ago) link

the best is being on a MOCK jury

My bossman has the same first and last name as another lawyer who works at an address that is 1 digit different from ours on the same street. There are hilarious mixups constantly. A personal injury lawyer kept calling here telling him he was going to be subpoenaed for testimony about a car accident he witnessed on Halloween in New Orleans, but he was here on Halloween.

Hey, Jordan: this is really embarrassing but could you remind me what state you live in, again? I'm just checking b/c I've had a special request for a holiday gift-finding favor from a work colleague, but it's MN sports team-oriented.

Laurel, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:40 (sixteen years ago) link

Wisconsin :>

Jordan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:43 (sixteen years ago) link

Kelsey is in MN, though?

Jordan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:44 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm in my own private Idaho.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:45 (sixteen years ago) link

Is it something to do with the Minnesota Fighting Saints?

jesse: my old roommate's boyfriend's name was jeffie (or at least that's what everyone called him)

guys, i'm on dialup at work! no DSL today. thank goodness there's a backup plan, esp as i'm alone in the office all day.

colette, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:49 (sixteen years ago) link

Haha sadly no.

Laurel, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:49 (sixteen years ago) link

Jeffie is a ridiculous name.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:54 (sixteen years ago) link

It's no Jimmy.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:55 (sixteen years ago) link

I am having a weird surge of a sense of endless possibility! I think it's this weather.

Last night I went to the top of the 'Cock and it was awesome. The sky was clear for a bit and then the clouds rolled in and it was incredible.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:56 (sixteen years ago) link

it kind of suited him, in a weird way.

colette, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:56 (sixteen years ago) link

judging by gis, a lot of jeffies out there haven't made it :(

You mean, they aren't immortal?

KitCat, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:58 (sixteen years ago) link

haha @ dead jeffies

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 16:58 (sixteen years ago) link

haha at immortal jeffies

La Lechera, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:01 (sixteen years ago) link

I like the idea of an immortal being, a entity who was transcended physical form and exists outside of time, a being of pure energy, a pure creative force that neither punishes nor rewards, named Jeffie.

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:07 (sixteen years ago) link

Hahahaha, yes.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:08 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm LOLing quietly as possible. LOLQAP.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:09 (sixteen years ago) link

dan m, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:11 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, Jenny filled me in on that guy. I'm so sorry I missed him!

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:11 (sixteen years ago) link

We could have had a competition to find out who was more Kenan.

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:12 (sixteen years ago) link

well, it helps that your name is actually kenan

n/a, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:12 (sixteen years ago) link

n/a, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 17:12 (sixteen years ago) link
